en tried the mill ouo morning and said to his son : john 1're beon thinking yes dad flour is too low she is that we are all grinding too much we are mm hoticb the inventions of brush edison and others ire only capable of giving a larger and more powerful current for a less ex penditure of power than the numerous in ventions which preceded then it is no wonder that electric light is now so com mon and successful when experimented with anil backed by the best inventive talent assisted by the example of inven tors and discovers for nearly one hun dred years immediately after the dis covery of the electric magnet by henry and the discovery of its prodigious lifting power when its coils were circulated by an elect lie current inventors began to look in that direction for a motive power for the future and in a short time jacobi was navigating the neva in a boat driven by electricity ; but the great impediment in his way as with all others until re cently was the great cost of supplying sufficient battery power which made the electric motor more expensive than steam motors with the recent advance made in producing large powerful elec tric currents the old expensive battery could be practically discarded while the electro motor is free to move in fact it will soon be a powerful rival to steam owing to its greater safety the possibili ty of supplying power to cities from 1 central station or to transmit power to upper rooms of high buildings for running printing presses etc hitherto inaccessi ble to steam power and the possibility of utilizing the power of falls rapids tides and rivers for driving our pondei ous mine and factory machinery it is now possible to take up the power of wind and water and convey it to where ever it may be needed which makes the electric motor no longer a pigmy but a powerful rival if not an overpowering opponent to steam since the recent im provements which make the storage bat tery practical currents may be stored for future use or when turned on our electro motors may be made to give out more power than if worked continuously electricity is undoubtedly the future mo tor for it can turn our mills and factories drive our cars crush our quartz and ores refine our metals in fact do man's hard work more perfectly than any steam me chanism the future value of electricity is rated so high by clear-headed men that so good a servant as steam lias been sinks by compaiison into insignificance nothing can be more probable than that coal will bo burned at the shaft the pow er to be transmitted to cities over a wire instead of the expensive way of hauling coal to our factories as now universally employed instead of putting steam en gines at our mines for compressing air etc the near future will see us utilizing the power of mountain streams for driv ing generators the power conveyed to tin mines by ft wire there to be recon verted iuto power by electric motors thus stopping the practice of hauling coal to the engines an expensive and unnecessa ry practice which necessitates the build ing of expensive roads sometimes many miles over the mountains electric pow er is so easily transmitted many miles over a wire that the

ire only capable of giving a larger and more powerful current for a less ex penditure of power than the numerous in ventions which preceded then it is no wonder that electric light is now so com mon and successful when experimented with anil backed by the best inventive talent assisted by the example of inven tors and discovers for nearly one hun dred years immediately after the dis covery of the electric magnet by henry and the discovery of its prodigious lifting power when its coils were circulated by an elect lie current inventors began to look in that direction for a motive power for the future and in a short time jacobi was navigating the neva in a boat driven by electricity ; but the great impediment in his way as with all others until re cently was the great cost of supplying sufficient battery power which made the electric motor more expensive than steam motors with the recent advance made in producing large powerful elec tric currents the old expensive battery could be practically discarded while the electro motor is free to move in fact it will soon be a powerful rival to steam owing to its greater safety the possibili ty of supplying power to cities from 1 central station or to transmit power to upper rooms of high buildings for running printing presses etc hitherto inaccessi ble to steam power and the possibility of utilizing the power of falls rapids tides and rivers for driving our pondei ous mine and factory machinery it is now possible to take up the power of wind and water and convey it to where ever it may be needed which makes the electric motor no longer a pigmy but a powerful rival if not an overpowering opponent to steam since the recent im provements which make the storage bat tery practical currents may be stored for future use or when turned on our electro motors may be made to give out more power than if worked continuously electricity is undoubtedly the future mo tor for it can turn our mills and factories drive our cars crush our quartz and ores refine our metals in fact do man's hard work more perfectly than any steam me chanism the future value of electricity is rated so high by clear-headed men that so good a servant as steam lias been sinks by compaiison into insignificance nothing can be more probable than that coal will bo burned at the shaft the pow er to be transmitted to cities over a wire instead of the expensive way of hauling coal to our factories as now universally employed instead of putting steam en gines at our mines for compressing air etc the near future will see us utilizing the power of mountain streams for driv ing generators the power conveyed to tin mines by ft wire there to be recon verted iuto power by electric motors thus stopping the practice of hauling coal to the engines an expensive and unnecessa ry practice which necessitates the build ing of expensive roads sometimes many miles over the mountains electric pow er is so easily transmitted many miles over a wire that the
